 Happy Easter to you too.

In Jesus'story, redemption is the payment of a ransom.
You are in bondage, and Jesus'death pays for your release.


The old Jewish laws had various ways to redeem a payment or animal sacrifice for various sins or inability to meet a (high) standard.

The old idea of debt isn't really a Christian invention, it is just a fact of life where you need assistance from people more fortunate than you in a harsh world.

I fall to understand how Bitcoin changed our relation to debt.
